How often should I get a facial?

Skin turns over roughly every four weeks, so a facial every three to four weeks keeps results building. Your aesthetician sets the schedule — some skins need it more often at the start, especially while a specific concern is being corrected, and anyone who wears makeup daily generally benefits from going more frequently. Starting earlier is cheaper in the long run: once your skin reaches the goal, you maintain it at home with the products your therapist recommends.

Will my skin be red afterwards?

A light flush is normal for an hour or two, particularly after extractions or a peel. If you have an event, book at least two days beforehand.

Can I wear makeup after a facial?

You can, but leaving skin bare for the rest of the day gets more out of the treatment. We finish with SPF.

Which facial is best for sensitive skin?

The Ultra-Calming Facial. It is formulated to reduce redness and inflammation and avoids the stronger actives used in the Age Smart range.

Do you use Dermalogica?

Yes — our entire facial menu uses the Dermalogica professional system, and we retail the range in-store and by phone.

Matching the facial to your skin

Dry, tight, flaking — Absolute-Hydration Facial. A luxury hydrating mask plus the Dermalogica system to plump the skin and repair the barrier.

Red, reactive, stings easily — Ultra-Calming Facial. Built to settle inflammation rather than push actives through a compromised barrier.

Dull, tired, uneven — Ultra-Revitalising Facial, or the Zen Stone Radiance Facial if you want the relaxation as much as the result.

Fine lines, early ageing — Age Smart Age-Defying, or Age Smart Ultra-Antioxidant if sun and pollution exposure is the bigger factor.

Congestion, blackheads, texture — Skin Refining Facial, or step up to an O Cosmedics skin treatment with an enzyme peel.

Are Sydney facial treatments worth it?

A professional facial is an investment in your skin's health and your general well-being — not just a nice hour. Whether you need hydration, anti-ageing care or a deep cleanse, the benefits are visible and they last.

Deep cleansing — removes dirt, oil and impurities for clearer skin.
Hydration and nourishment — keeps skin soft, smooth and refreshed.
Anti-ageing — softens fine lines, supports collagen and improves elasticity.
Relaxation and stress relief — a soothing experience for your mind as much as your skin.
Customised care — every treatment is tailored to your skin type and concerns.

Our aestheticians bring years of experience and a personal touch to every treatment, which is why so many guests come back rather than shopping around.

Facial prices and packages

Facial prices at our Potts Point day spa range from $98 to $170, depending on treatment length and any add-ons. We also offer packages that combine a facial with a relaxing Head And Scalp Massage for a fuller wellness experience — see the spa package menu.

A facial can look like a luxury, but it is a sensible investment in long-term skin health. If you are treating a specific concern, a short course of treatments followed by maintenance costs less over a year than starting again each time the problem returns.
